Robust acidic pseudo-ionic liquid catalyst with self-separation ability for esterification and acetalization
Shi, Yingxia,Liang, Xuezheng
, p. 1413 - 1421 (2019/05/04)
The novel acidic pseudo-ionic liquid catalyst with self-separation ability has been synthesized through the quaternization of triphenylphosphine and the acidification with silicotungstic acid. The pseudo-IL showed high activities for the esterification with average conversions over 90%. The pseudo-IL showed even higher activities for acetalization than traditional sulfuric acid. The homogeneous catalytic process benefited the mass transfer efficiency. The pseudo-IL separated from the reaction mixture automatically after reactions, which was superior to other IL catalysts. The high catalytic activities, easy reusability and high stability were the key properties of the novel catalyst, which hold great potential for green chemical processes.

4-Cyclohexylbutyl-N-[(S)-2-oxoazetidin-3-yl]carbamate (3b) is a potent, selective and systemically active inhibitor of intracellular NAAA activity, which produces profound anti-inflammatory effects in animal models. In the present work, we describe structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies on 3-aminoazetidin-2-one derivatives, which have led to the identification of 3b, and expand these studies to elucidate the principal structural and stereochemical features needed to achieve effective NAAA inhibition. Investigations on the influence of the substitution at the β-position of the 2-oxo-3-azetidinyl ring as well as on the effect of size and shape of the carbamic acid ester side chain led to the discovery of 3ak, a novel inhibitor of human NAAA that shows an improved physicochemical and drug-like profile relative to 3b. This favourable profile, along with the structural diversity of the carbamic acid chain of 3b, identify this compound as a promising new tool to investigate the potential of NAAA inhibitors as therapeutic agents for the treatment of pain and inflammation.
Driving an equilibrium acetalization to completion in the presence of water
Minakawa, Maki,Yamada, Yoichi M. A.,Uozumi, Yasuhiro
, p. 36864 - 36867 (2014/11/08)
Formation of an acetal from a carbonyl substrate by condensation with an alcohol is a classical reversible equilibrium reaction in which the water formed must be removed to drive the reaction to completion. A new method has been developed for acetalization of carbonyl substrates by diols in the presence of water. Complexation of poly(4-styrenesulfonic acid) with poly(4-vinylpyridine) generates a catalytic membrane of polymeric acid at the interface between two parallel laminar flows in a microchannel of a microflow reactor. The catalytic membrane provides a permeable barrier between the organic layer and water-containing layer in the reaction, and permits discharge of water to the outlet of the microreactor to complete the acetalization. Condensation of a variety of carbonyl substrates with diols proceeded in the presence of water in the microflow device to give the corresponding acetals in yields of up to 97% for residence times of 19 to 38 s. the Partner Organisations 2014.

, p. 301 - 305 (2012/10/29)
A novel multi-SO3H functionalized ionic liquid is synthesized and a detailed account of its cata- lytic activities in acetalization and acetylation is given. The results showed that the ionic liquid is very efficient in the conventional acid-catalyzed reactions with good to excellent yields within a short reaction time. Oper- ational simplicity, small amounts required, low cost of the catalyst, high yields, scalability and reusability are the key features of this methodology, which indicates the high potentialities of the novel ionic liquid to be used in environmentally friendly processes.

Indium(III) triflate catalysed transacetalisation reactions of diols and triols under solvent-free conditions
Smith, Brendan M.,Kubczyk, Tomasz M.,Graham, Andrew E.
experimental part, p. 7775 - 7781 (2012/09/21)
Acyclic acetals and ketals undergo transacetalisation in the presence of catalytic quantities of indium(III) triflate (In(OTf)3) and diols or triols under solvent-free conditions to generate the corresponding cyclic acetals and ketals in excellent yield. The methodology has been further developed to encompass a tandem acetalisation-acetal exchange protocol, which provides a facile and high yielding route to cyclic ketals from unreactive ketones under very mild reaction conditions.
Indium triflate mediated tandem acetalisation-acetal exchange reactions under solvent-free conditions
Smith, Brendan M.,Graham, Andrew E.
experimental part, p. 6281 - 6283 (2011/12/14)
Acyclic acetals and ketals undergo exchange reactions in the presence of catalytic quantities of indium(III) triflate and diols to generate the corresponding cyclic acetals and ketals in excellent yield. The protocol is rapid, employs mild conditions and can be adapted to employ solvent-free reaction conditions. We have further developed this methodology to encompass a tandem acetalisation-acetal exchange protocol which provides facile access to cyclic ketals from unreactive ketones also under very mild, solvent-free reaction conditions.

experimental part, p. 131 - 135 (2009/09/30)
Various types of aromatic aldehydes were efficiently converted to their corresponding 1,3-dioxanes and 1,3-dioxolane with 1,3-propanediol and ethylene glycol, respectively, in the presence of catalytic amount of ZrO(OTf) 2 in acetonitrile at room temperature. The catalyst can be reused several times without loss of its catalytic activity. Very short reaction times, selective acetalization of aromatic aldehydes in the presence of aliphatic aldehydes and ketones, very mild reaction conditions, reusability of the catalyst, and easy workup are noteworthy advantages of this method.
